A Singing Faithis a book of inspiring hymns composed by renowned hymn writter Jane Parker Huber. It includes an introduction in which Huber discusses her songwriting process, commentaries on the hymns, and a topical index.

Hymn singing is vital to both the beliefs and emotion of worship in all religions, especially Protestant Christianity. With the rising popularity of contemporary worship, traditional hymnody is in danger of being lost to Christian memory. This book reflects the intellectual excellence, the religious devotion, and the widespread influence of over two hundred hymns. Many have very poignant life situations which prompted the writing of hymns or poems that musicians composed to enhance the singability or the majesty of the lyrics. Haynes has done careful research into the life and specific occasions when inspiration led to the gift of a hymn to posterity. These vignettes are meaningful for private devotional use and in worship bulletins to make hymn singing more meaningful.

Sing the Faith, a supplement to The Presbyterian Hymnal. It features more than 280 hymns, many of which have been written by and for Presbyterians since the publication of The Presbyterian Hymnal.
